He did preach about marriage of a man and his wife, specifically. Never said it was even remotely OK for it to be man and man or girl and girl. Also, in Leviticus, which were laws that were upheld, with some exceptions, homosexuality is forbidden. Jesus did, however, forbid things such as stoning, saying that more or less, it was up to God, who was without sin and all good to decide their fate.

You're right, it doesn't. Many of the cleanliness laws in Leviticus were declared invalid in the New Testament, something like "do not cleanse what I have made clean" was the terminology. Following this, clarification was given that it referred to things like eating meats, cleaning the hands, wearing fabrics, etc. and the things like sex and marriage, which had been raised to a sacramental level, were still under the basic provision of one-man, one-woman.

To clarify that, it has to do with the fulfillment of Isaiah's prophecy (which was concerning the Messiah, ie Jesus). According to Isaiah, the fulfillment would mark the beginning of a new Earth and Heaven. Jesus said that none of the laws (Mosaic Law) would be abolished until the Earth and Heaven passed away. After His death and resurrection, the prophecy was fulfilled and the old laws passed away. You'll hear this referred to as the New Covenant.
